Nice SFF choice with the Thermaltake CTE T500, it should handle the compact build well. The MSI Ai1300P PSU looks solid for future upgrades too.
Agreed, the Thermaltake CTE T500 is a great fit for SFF builds, and the MSI Ai1300P should provide plenty of headroom for upgrades.
@airflowandy Thanks! I went with the Thermaltake CTE T500 because it’s compact yet offers good airflow, and the MSI Ai1300P gives me the flexibility I need for any future component swaps or upgrades down the line.
@lotte_chip The Thermaltake CTE T500 should work well for your SFF build, but keep an eye on component sizes to ensure everything fits comfortably.
